      Pros

      I've worked here for a few months now (and in life sciences for a long time) and I've been pleasantly impressed. Compared to many large US corporations they are very fast moving in terms of executing ideas, products and pivoting strategy. Compared to many EU corporations they are flexible, the culture is much more driven towards hard work and success and we're missing all those layers of bureaucracy that poor performers and middling managers often hide behind. I've never worked for any company where everyone is so very polite, helpful and so direct at the same time and I can see why some people would struggle with such a culture. If you're prepared to work hard and execute your ideas, you often have the freedom to do so here. I'm not a Mandarin speaker, but I've had no issues with the onboarding process (other than usual IT ones and they were super happy to help, in fact I do need to mention just how incredibly helpful their IT is consistently!)

      Cons

      That level of directness will be difficult for many people, you are expected to execute, take responsibility and show results. If you do not, the fast moving organization will also move fast to remove you. I feel some people will struggle with such pressure and others will thrive on it. However, if you're someone who wants to get things done and is happy to be challenged, you'll get on well here.

      Thank you for your review and honesty. As we are a growing company, we are more fast-paced, but do hope that employees feel the same as you in that they are given the freedom to execute their ideas.
